331056	2005-03-05 23:25:00	Hey, i am having major probs with my computer, it will run for about 1/2 an hour, and then it gets really slow, and wont save files on network shares. I have had a look in my eventlog and found that ACPI has a red X by it, and that MRxSmb has a yellow triangle. I had a look at the link that the event view gives you, and it says look for a bios update.....but i have no idea what model my computer is, all i no is that its a compaq. Can anyone help me here becuase its really anoying rebooting every 1/2 hour. I use WinXP sp2 btw Thanks Daniel	dwnz (5333)
331057	2005-03-05 23:29:00	Have a look at the back of the case (is this a compaq desktop)? It might have the model # on a sticker. Or are there any stickers on the front?? With a model # on it?? Or, highlight My Computer on the desktop / right mouse / properties. Does it give u a model # under the General tab??	Speedy Gonzales (78)
331058	2005-03-05 23:48:00	Had a look on the back, nothing, theres nothing on the front, all it says is Compaq Deskpro, and in my computer it just says Intell Pentium 3 497mhz, 192mb Ram I have installed XP myself, so it doesnt have any of the compaq stuff on it. Daniel	dwnz (5333)
331059	2005-03-06 00:01:00	I would go to http://www.hp.com And type in Compaq Deskpro under search. You may have to go thru the entries that come up until you find out which one looks like yours. Before you get a BIOS update.	Speedy Gonzales (78)
331060	2005-03-06 02:58:00	Ive done that, i know that my computers a EP/SB, but i dont know what model it is under there (h20000.www2.hp.com) and just having a quick look through them, none of them seem to have any updates.......... Daniel	dwnz (5333)
331061	2005-03-06 03:03:00	Can u take a photo of this case?? There's nothing we can do, coz we dont what the model is either. Try this site, and see if it can show u what model u have http://www.lavalys.com/ Download and run the Home version	Speedy Gonzales (78)
